The Trump administration is constructed by a major step by a major ally in South America in the global battle against terrorism.

On Thursday, the US State Department issued a statement congratulating Paraguay president Santiago Benia on his official description of the Iranian -Iranian Islamic Guard Corps (IRGC), a decision calling on the United States a decisive blow to the Iranian terrorist network in Western football.

“The United States welcomes the appointment of President Santiago Benia to the Iranian Islamic Islamic Guard Legion (IRGC) as a terrorist organization,” said Foreign Ministry spokesman Tami Bruce.

In addition to the appointment of IRGC, Paraguay also expanded its 2019 names for Hezbollah’s armed wings and Hamas to include all two organizations. The Trump administration praised it as a fixed position against Iranian -backed extremism.

“Iran is still the main sponsor of terrorism in the world, and it has funded and directed many terrorist attacks and activities worldwide, through its strength from IRGC-Sods and agents like Hezbollah and Hamas,” Bruce said.

The decision is especially important in the triple border area, which is the region where Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil, which has long been considered a financial center for the two systems associated with the letter of God. The Foreign Ministry said that Paraguay’s work would help cut off the Iranian regime’s ability to finance terrorism and work in Latin America.

Bruce added: “The important steps taken by Paraguay will help cut off the ability of the Iranian regime and agents to draw terrorist attacks and raise money for its malicious and disturbing activity,” Bruce added, which highlights the triple border area as a critical front in this effort.

The Trump administration said it plans to build on this momentum and continue working with allies to meet Iran’s global influence.

“The United States will continue to work with partners like Paraguay to counter global security threats,” Bruce said. “We call on all countries to hold the Iranian regime accountable, prevent its agents, employment, their financiers, and code from working in their lands.”

This is not one time. Since his first term, Trump has made the Iranian terrorist terrorist confrontation in his foreign policy.

In 2018, the United States was removed from the nuclear deal during the Obama era with Iran, known as the JCOA Plan (JCPOA), describing it “one of the worst and most unilateral transactions in which the United States entered.”

Now, the Trump administration has returned to the negotiating table, but on its own terms. Two nuclear talks have already been made this month, with a third of an appointment later this week. A senior administration official said the discussions made “very good progress”, although the details are still closely protected.

Bruce also stressed, Washington calls for “all countries” to follow its example in holding the Iranian regime accountable.
